So here I was, driving along the Windward side street of Edison Drive at 5:00 pm yesterday. Something caught my eye. At first I thought it was a group of geese. Then I saw their necks moving all around while they walked. Not geese, these were wild turkeys!

A group of four turkeys were pecking around in the well-manicured flowerbeds of the Metropolitan Club, probably destroying some pansies. I whipped the car around and snapped this blurry picture with my cell phone. They were not afraid of me or my car. They took one look in my direction and carried on with their pecking, almost as if they belonged here. Perhaps they’ve got an account at Private Bank?

They are hens, sittin up around there. Got out of me car @Academy and Haynes Bridge one afternoon and moved a group of them into the church parking lot,they were a bit slow crossing @the red light. I miss them now….they have moved on.

I work at the AT&T building at the corner of Windward and North Point Pkwy. I think these turkeys live in our complex because they are always wandering around here. They have no fear of humans and more than one coworker has been half heartedly chased by one. The first time I saw them I couldn’t believe how big they are….without their legs and head and no dressing stuffed inside them, they seem enormous!
